Part 4/7:
Enter Anthony Davis
A New Era for Dallas
The trade brought Anthony Davis to the Mavericks—a player labeled as one of the most dominant big men in basketball history. His physical prowess and versatility offer Dallas an opportunity to revamp their team identity. Davis has long expressed a desire to play the four position rather than the five, and the Mavericks plan to leverage this by placing a legitimate center, like Derrick Lively or Daniel Gafford, behind him.
